I am pleased to present the websites for my spring 2012 James Madison marketing students enrolled in MKTG 470.
Last week, each student successfully purchased a WordPress hosting plan and a .com domain name using GoDaddy.com. During the next week, my students will begin transforming their WordPress site into a unique creation. At first, they will learn how to establish a site theme, edit their “sample” page, create new web pages, manage their navigational bar, create permalinks, get their blog started, customize authorship of their blog, work with widgets, add images to their website, and create hyperlinks to images and text. Later in the course, students will explore various plug-ins for search engine optimization and site analytics, change their site theme to reflect their individual personalities, add blog posts, create favicons, enable social media sharing, and much more.
I am very excited to help my students hone their technological skills. Below is a listing of my spring 2012 students and their URLs.
Please revisit this page periodically over the next few months to see how the sites develop.

Awesome list, Dr. T! Glad to see this is a part of your course outline. Here’s a tip for anyone who has a hard time finding a memorable, personalized domain name. If your name is taken, try registering ask(yourfirstname).com. It is easy to say to other people, possibly easy to spell (or try initials if this is a problem) and positions you as an expert by default. You can also check out Domai.nr for other interesting possibilities.
